Abstract

Plasmonic hybrid nanostructure including Semiconductor-metallic nanoparticles, and graphene-plasmonic nanocomposites have great potential to be used as photocatalyst for hydrogen production and for photodegradation of organic waste. Also, they are potential candidate as active materials in photovoltaic devices. Plasmonic-magnetic nanocomposites could be used in photothermal therapy and biomedical imaging. This chapter will focus on the environmental impact of these materials and their in-vitro and in-vivo toxicity. In addition, the applications of these hybrid nanostructures in energy and environment will be discussed in details.
